Black Lyrics – Sarah McLachlan

Black Text

---

As the walls are closing in
And the colors fade to black
As my eyes are falling fast asleep to me
And I follow the tracks that lead me down
And I never follow what is right
And they wonder sometimes
when they see all the sadness
And pain the truth brings to light

'Cause I can't see no reason
What is blind cannot see
'Cause I want what is pleasin'
All I take should be free
What I rob from the innocent ones
What I'd steal from the womb

As the walls are closing in
And the colours fade to black
And the night is falling fast and deep into the sea
And in darkness, all that I can see
The frightened and the weak
Are forced to cling to mistakes they know nothing of
At mercy are the meek

'Cause I can't see no reason
What is blind cannot see
'Cause I want what is pleasin'
All I take should be free
What I rob from the innocent ones
What I'd steal from the womb ...
